Environmental Education Project
The project goal is to build on the capacity of the San community through participatory consultation on the benefits of local environment to livelihoods. This process will highlight the integration of lifestyle and preservation of traditional knowledge specific to the San communities into process and policy developments in Namibia. Maintenance of natural resources will be promoted through greater recognition of the threats of environmental desertification.
